  • Hands-On Explorations of Plane Transformations
    Hands-On Explorations of Plane Transformations James King University of Washington Department of Mathematics [email protected] http://www.math.washington.edu/~king The “Plan” • In this session, we will explore exploring. • We have a big math toolkit of transformations to think about. • We have some physical objects that can serve as a hands- on toolkit. • We have geometry relationships to think about. • So we will try out at many combinations as we can to get an idea of how they work out as a real-world experience. • I expect that we will get some new ideas from each other as we try out different tools for various purposes. Our Transformational Case of Characters • Line Reflection • Point Reflection (a rotation) • Translation • Rotation • Dilation • Compositions of any of the above Our Physical Toolkit • Patty paper • Semi-reflective plastic mirrors • Graph paper • Ruled paper • Card Stock • Dot paper • Scissors, rulers, protractors Reflecting a point • As a first task, we will try out tools for line reflection of a point A to a point B. Then reflecting a shape. A • Suggest that you try the semi-reflective mirrors and the patty paper for folding and tracing. Also, graph paper is an option. Also, regular paper and cut-outs M • Note that pencils and overhead pens work on patty paper but not ballpoints. Also not that overhead dots are easier to see with the mirrors. B • Can we (or your students) conclude from your C tool that the mirror line is the perpendicular bisector of AB? Which tools best let you draw this reflection? • When reflecting shapes, consider how to reflect some polygon when it is not all on one side of the mirror line.

  • But Why: a Podcast for Curious Kids Are There Underground Cities
    But Why: A Podcast for Curious Kids Are There Underground Cities? January 5, 2018 [00:00:20] This is [00:00:21] But Why: A Podcast For Curious Kids from Vermont Public Radio. On this show we take your questions on anything from science to art to history to ethics. And we find interesting people to help answer them. [00:00:37] Sometimes we answer them ourselves and sometimes we get to go on field trips to answer your questions. That's my favorite. I'll tell you how to ask your own question at the end of the episode. I am actually outside right now and I am not going to stay outside for very long. I am in Montreal, in Canada, and it is minus 5 degrees out. That's Fahrenheit. If you live here in Canada you'd say it's minus 20 Celsius. I am freezing. My toes are froze. This is the kind of weather that freezes the little hairs inside your nostrils. So I'm going to go inside but that's perfect because that's where we need to go [00:01:22] to answer today's question. My name is Wyatt and I live Los Angeles. And I am five years old. [00:01:32] I want to know if there is underground cities? Well it just so happens I am standing outside a sign that says "Reseau" which in Montreal represents the underground city. Let's go in. [00:01:49] Okay. I am now inside the McGill metro station. But this is more than a subway or a tube stop.

  • Underground Space: Good for Sustainable Development, and Vice Versa
    Underground Space: Good for Sustainable Development, and Vice Versa International Tunnelling Association (ITA) Open Session World Tunnel Congress, Singapore May, 2004 by Harvey W. Parker Vice President, International Tunnelling Association (ITA) President, Harvey Parker & Associates, Inc. INTRODUCTION Underground Works and Underground Space, which are referred to in this paper as “the Underground” are ideal means for improving the environment and supporting the principles of Sustainable Development. As the examples in this paper will show, this is not a new revelation. Quite the contrary, since man first began to use caves for shelter, use of the underground has protected man and simultaneously enhanced the environment. Throughout time, society has looked to the underground anytime there was 1) a need for a safe haven, or 2) whenever something needed to be protected against harm or for future use or 3) for disposal of undesirable waste or hazardous materials. Long before the environmental movement developed and the concept of sustainable development was conceived, use of the underground resulted in strong contributions toward the principles which, we now know, support sustainable development. At the present time (2004), use of the underground is contributing strongly to the goals of sustainable development. So, what is this thing called sustainable development? This paper addresses the importance of sustainable development to society and to the broad underground industry. This paper addresses the needs for rural areas as well as for developed and developing urban cities. It will be shown that the Underground is synergistic with respect to the environment and sustainable development. The combined effect and benefits of the individual aspects of use of the Underground combine to produce an effect greater than the total of the individual effects.
